Two or three farmers who came in
after aid Saturday- got into a squabble
over the matter during the evening
while in one of the saloons and a fight

sued. The beligerantfi were finally sep
arated by bystanders.
It is rumored that unless consumers
of city water nre less extravagant in the
use of water on tho lawns the company
will cut them down to the restrictions
provided by ordinance. Such a course
would result in considerable inconven
ience to many, and its hoped that con
sumers will be more careful and thus
avoid such action on the part of the
company.
As an evidence of the "New Woman"
morement in North Platte it was noticed
that one evening last week two gentle
men, wives and babies were out riding
on bicycles. The natural supposition
would be be that as of old, the babies
would te riding with their mothers.
Such was not the case, however. The
men were taking care of the babies while
the mothers rode along in front perfectly
free and untrammeled.
We more fully, than ever, have rea
sons to believe in the principles of evolu
tion and that North Platte has the honor
of being the point where the commence
ment has been made. One of the ladies
of the town was called to her kitchen
door by a tramp this week and very
naturally expected to be asked for food.
She was astonished, however, when the
request was made for a piece of soap.
As soap is one article" that tramps are
not credited with using, it is to be pre
sumed that the movement is now up
ward in the tramp circles and an evolu
tion for higher development commenced.
We have received notice from a
newspaper publisher in Massachusetts
that ho will furnish free to all destitute
editors in the drouth-stricken district of
Nebraska a package of winter squash

ably will, starvation will not stare us in
the face next winter. A fellow who can
not subsist on squashes for five or six
months during the winter season issa

place will be marked by a five ton gran
ite monument.

Milton. Doolittle and children departed

A Philadelphia relativo of the edi

Wild West one day last week and though
tho day was a very wet one the attend
ance at the show was simply immense.
Sending her card into Colonel Cody's
private car after the performance, she
was received by the Colonel with his
usual gallantry and with such genuine
hospitality that she readily became a
great admirer of our distinguished
townsman.
W. S. Ripley, an experiencee English
gardener, came down from Denver last
week, and after looking over this section
has decided to locate here and engage in
truck farming. He has secured seventy
five acres of land of B. Beer which he
will get in shape for next season's crop,
the intention being to plant the entire
tract to vegetables. This season he will
put out twenty acres of celery on land
west of town owned by C. L. Patterson
which he has leased for the season. Mr.
Ripley has had many years experience
in gardening and pronounces the soil in
this section particularly well adapted!
for this purpose. j
J. McConnell, of Somerset, brought
to this office yesterday samples of pota
toes which ho raised last season. They
are very smooth-skinned, large in size
and possess qualities which make them
especially fine eating. On account of
the drouth, Mr. McConnell succeeded in
raising only about one hundred bushels
of them. He has this season put in a
small irrigation plant with which to
water a tract of land planted to fruit
trees, grapes and strawberries. He has
also put in ten acres of alfalfa, and if it
proves successful this season he will sow
fifty acres next year.
Victor VonGoetz retired from the
office of mayor last night after a year of
service that has proved very satisfactory
to the people. Mr. VonGoetz began bis
duties as mayor with the determination
that his administration would be an
economical one. He was full aware
that the debt hanging over the city
while not an extraordinary one, was
larger than should be, and he also real
ized that the only way it could be wiped
out was by a curtailment of the running
expenses, w itn tnis in view street worn
ana other improvements were kept down
to the lowest notch possible, and as a
result the expenses of the city have bean,
some $1,200 less than usual. Mr. Baker,
our new mayor, is a conservative maa
and we believe he will follow in the foot
steps of Mr. VonGoetz in keeping down
the expenses.
The local butchers are experiebo
ing 'some little difficulty in getting a
sufficient, number of good beef cattle to
supply the demands of their customors.

A meeting of the graduates of the
North Platte High school will be held at
the office of the county superintendent
on Saturday, May 11th, at 2 p. m. Mat
ters of special interest will come before
the meeting and a full attendance is
desired.
George Nauman during the past
season has cured a good many tons of
hams, shoulders and side meat, which he
has disposed of to the 'local merchants
and to the customers of his market. This
meat is considered by many to be super
ior to the meats cured by the Omaha
packers.
The work of repairing the Knights
of Pythias ball, recently damaged by
fire, has commenced, and will be pushed
forward with the utmost rapidity.
Some important changes will be made
in the hall, among which is an elevation
of the roof so as to raise the ceiling three
feet higher. This will make a decided
improvement, and with new carpets,
furniture, and papered walls will make.
an elegant and very convenient hall.
The lodges which have temporarily
been without a place of meeting will be
glad to know that the hall promises to
be in shape for holding meetings in ten
days or so.

For the good of the fire department
it is hoped that the present little squab
ble resulting over the election of a chief
will not be fostered and expanded. From
the evidence produced before the council
it would seem that the election at which
the chief and assistant were elected was
regularly called, that the attendance
was as large as is usual at such meetings,
aad that the charge of illegal voting is
Bot well sustained. The Tribune has
no, choice of chief, any good competent
man is suitable for it, and we bcliovo to
the citizens at large. It is hoped that
the matter wi 1 soon be settled to the
satisfaction of nil, and that the standard
of excellency which has characterized
f he department will be maintained.

COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS.
Th&re .was a large audience present at
the council chamber last evening, and
the meeting held was a protracted one;
The presence of the auditors was duo
principally to a desire to lea rn who the
appointees of the new mayor would bo.
Mayor VonGoetz rapped the council
to order at 8:15 and after the minutes of
two previous meetings had been read
and approved, the finance committee re
ported that they.had audited the books
and vouchers of the city treasurer and
had found them correct.
James Belton, who had requested the
privilege of erecting an outside stairwav
on a brick block he proposes to erect on
Fif fh and Spruce street was notified that
the council had no power to act in the
matter. The same decision was rendered
in the matter of the F. & M. ditch com
panyj who had asked for a right-of-way
along Second street.
Butler Buchanan asked the city to re
imburse him in the amount of 87.70 for
overpaid interest on a city warrant, but
the council thought Mr. B. should re
cover the amount from the party to
whom it was paid.
After several bills had been approved
or allowed, time was given the clerk to
write up the minutes of the meeting,
after which the old council adjourned
sine die. Previous to adjournment how
ever, Mayor VonGoetz thanked the
members of the council for the support
they had given him. During his ad
ministration the running expenses of
the city had been cu t down over 81,000
and he hoped that the present adminis
tration would be able to make a like re
duction. If it did the city debt could
eventually be paid without the aid of
funding bonds.
Tho mayor then vacated tho chair and
administered the oath of office to Mayor
elect Baker who at onco entered 'upon
his duty as mayor. The oath of office
was administered to the clerk, who in
turn administered it to the councilmen.

the city fire department, stating that at
tho annual meeting of the fire depart
ment S. L. Bristol had been elected chief
and W. II C. Woodhurst assistant chief,
and requesting that theso be confirmed
by the council. This was followed by a
remonstrance against tho confirmation
of Bristol and Woodhurst on the ground
that they bad boon elected by votes cast
by certain parties who were not active
members of the department. The op
posing factions were represented to the
number of eighteen or twenty, and a
short investigation of the matter was
held by the council. The matter was re
ferred to a special committee for further
investigation. The council then ad

It is sheer nonsense to pretend that

wants is notoriety and to possess that
attraction in the eyes of men which she
imagines tho ballet girl possesses. In
almost every case 'she dances so badly
that there is no excuse for her from the
artistic point of view, and if skirt danc
ing is not artistic it is valgar or ridicu
lous or both. In either case it is a fash

Not only is diamond cutting not a
specially high paid occupation, but it
is one involving a most humiliating
system of espionago to the worker. Each
man is held strictly to account for the
stones he receives on going to work ia
the morning, and tbe count has to be
carefully taken when tbe unfinished
work is turned in at night to be locked
up in a safe against the return of the'
workmen the next day. The possibilities
of theft aro great, though" a dishonest
workman knows that an attempt to dis
pose of an unfinished stone would bring
suspicion upon him wherever tbe at
